🚨 Initially dropped: Tuchel takes Chelsea star to the World Cup

After Thomas Tuchel announced his World Cup squad, the outcry was huge. Both the England fans and the press were unable to understand some of the coach’s decisions. 

However, one of the players previously left out has now made it to the World Cup after all. Following Tino Livramento’s bitter injury, Thomas Tuchel called up Chelsea’s Trevoh Chalobah as a replacement. The 26-year-old had previously not been considered, along with Chelsea superstar Cole Palmer. 

Because England’s opening match is still more than 24 hours away, the Three Lions were allowed under FIFA regulations to fill the gap left by the injury. Once the team has started its World Cup campaign, it is no longer permitted to call up a replacement player.
